You will face the same tactical challenges as generals such as George Washington and William Howe, with missions of varying size and objectives, and 24 different combat units. As with previous strategy games from Hunted Cow, every effort has been made to capture the look and feel of the warfare methods, equipment and uniform of the day, and this title is no exception. In these battles players will also find the detailed and accurate maps, orders of battle, and named regiments from the well-loved Decision Games board game.

The hex-based game system features a large variety of infantry, cavalry and artillery units, generals and terrain types. Use your combined forces to outmaneuver, outwit or outshoot your opponent. Victory awaits you, Commander!

Disappointing
Dinkydoo4692

Hunted Cow may have no bigger fan than I (check the reviews). But that cannot excuse the fact that this latest release is nothing short of a dismal money grab. I looked forward to Redcoates based upon a Pocket Tactics plug. A huge disappointment. What was delivered was a grossly overpriced expansion of Peninsular War (itself a copy of ancient Battle Rome). Nearly identical. At least there, there was more than an hour of distraction to be had. Boo. This is what selling out looks like.

Bad value

Disappointing! There is only 1 campaign with 5 scenarios - you only get a couple days play for your $10. The AI is not very smart, poor scenario design makes the game easy to beat. One of their worst games...

Great game

Been playing hunted cow, hexwar games for a while. This is right up there with the very best of em. Only thing missing is more campaigns. How bout a vietnam war game. With chopper missions...

Could Have Been Better But Still Have Hope

I've been a great fan of Hunted Cows Tank Battles series. When an American Revolutionary War came out I was quite excited. Unfortunately the game was a bit of a disappointment. The game is way over priced for what you get and the games AI on hard is a bit of a push over However, the game has great potential and I have faith that Hunted Cow will do their fans right by improving this game.

I enjoy all the Hunted Cow games I have. What change I would like to see is when troops get down to 3 I can consolidate units.

Fun but Pricey

Fun game. Enjoyed like all of your other titles but $9.99 is a steep price to pay for the small amount of battles available, especially compared to the other games. Please release free updates.

Good, but could be much better for the price.

This game needs some more refinement. Some controls - like formation and attacks - are not quite as clear as in theme CW series. I think the graphics overall are pretty impressive. I am disappointed in the very limited number of scenarios compared to the other games from this company especially at the prince set for this game. I like the size of the maps, which offer some tactical options, but with units entering from the distant edges it is often difficult to accomplish some objectives.

Good idea just doesn't work well

Game is very slow. Takes forever for an enemy turn and it seems like if you don't know the history of Gettysburg battles you are screwed. I am on turn 40 and can't engage the enemy. Took me 3 hours to get here and I just want a war not a history lesson.

Tons of fun!

This game like almost all of the games made by Hunted Cow Studios Ltd. is great fun! It's a wonderful strategy game where YOU are the general. The historical info only helps to make the game even more interesting! The only thing I wish is that they had more maps in the campaign. Any of these games are great! Be sure to check out Peninsula wars for even more fun!
